Amanda is an alcohol-free lifestyle expert, holistic life coach, speaker, and author. Amanda’s journey shows that you don’t need a drinking problem for alcohol to hold you back. Without hitting rock bottom, she discovered during Dry January that sobriety was the key to a more fulfilling life. Since going alcohol-free in 2017, she’s been helping others embrace intentional living and unlock their full potential. Her debut book, Unbottled Potential, is a transformative guide to living alcohol-free, designed to help people manifest success and lead extraordinary lives. Amanda’s approach isn’t about a temporary challenge—it’s about redefining what it means to live fully and authentically through the sober-curious movement. Here are some of the things we talked about in today’s podcast: · Social pressures can make sobriety feel isolating. · Cutting back on alcohol can be a mental struggle. · Going cold turkey can be more effective than moderation. · Unexpected benefits of sobriety include increased clarity and creativity. · Friendships may evolve as drinking habits change. · Embracing discomfort can lead to personal growth and new connections. The realization of true friendship often comes after sobriety. · Facing emotions without alcohol is a challenging but necessary process. · Alcohol can cap your ability to experience joy. · It's important to sit with your emotions rather than escape them. · Life can become unimaginably better after quitting alcohol. · Finding your 'why' is crucial for maintaining sobriety. · Embracing discomfort can lead to personal growth and fulfilment.
